The Human Condition of Dementia - Jason Burton (ex Alzheimer's WA)

Today's guest is Jason Burton.

Jason has been working in aged and dementia care for over 30 years, starting his career as a mental health nurse in the UK and at the time of recording, working as the head of training, consulting, quality and innovation for Alzheimer's Western Australia.

He is tireless in his pursuit to re-examine traditional methods of care, and ask the question, can we do better? Jason is at the forefront of dementia care in Australia and he’s one of the most outspoken innovative voices that we have and recently moving into the dementia consultancy space.

In this episode, we cover quite a few topics that Jason is passionate about discussing, including dementia enabled spaces, the use of deception in dementia care and the pace of progress.
